University-Rosedale All-Candidates Debate on the Environment

100 Debates on the Environment: University-Rosedale, Toronto

Where do the University-Rosedale candidates stand on issues of the environment, a just transition, and national Indigenous healing and reconciliation?

The impacts of climate change are present and intensifying here in Canada: heat domes, wildfires, flooding, drought. The recent report from the IPCC painted a clear picture of a "code red" for humanity -- a call for immediate, emergency action.

Find out what commitments our University-Rosedale candidates are making to create a net zero emissions future, safeguard the environment, build a green and just recovery from COVID-19, and further national Indigenous healing and reconciliation.

This event is part of the pan-Canadian and non-partisan initiative, 100 Debates on the Environment, led by GreenPAC in partnership with Canadian organizations and individuals across the country.
